11:09 pm - Home. Resting.
We had a strong last day -- all our runners ran faster today. Even my last leg, which I was kind of dreading (5 miles, already tired and sore before starting) ended up being pretty fast for me. Now I'm home, and clean, and badly in need of a good night's sleep.

12:22 pm - Day 3
Today is going by fast. We're on C14, and I'm up for my second run of the day at C17. I'm pretty tired. 5 miles to go. I'm hydrating and getting ready mentally.
Beautiful weather.

05:30 pm - End of day 2
I've run three times since the last time I had an internet connection (yesterday). Last night I did a 5.4 mile run in a cold rain, ending at a beautiful spot on the Au Sable river. Today I had two runs on the shore to shore trail, both in pristine forest. The 5.4 mile first one took me past lakes and rivers. The 3.5 mile 2nd run just stuck to the woods. Those trails are rough! A lot of sand on the trails in places, plus rocks and branches and so on. You actually miss most of the scenery because you spend so much time looking at the ground right in front of you.
One more day to go!

12:44 pm - Feeling good
I finished my first run (5 miles) earlier. Now I'm relaxing and waiting for my next run. I am the last runner of the day for our team, so I'm going to try to pick up the pace next run (I was running 8:30s on my first run of the day). It's a lot of fun out here -- great cameraderie!
